Cumberland Valley bridge at Lemoyne some time ago.
The commission advised the committee in regard to water rates. The Union appointed another committee to confer with C. H. Bishop, president of the Riverton Consolidated Water Company. On the committee are: L. L. Mamacher and H. H. Rice, of Lemoyne and C. H. Germeyer, of Camp Hill.
Supervisors of East Pennsboro Township informed members of the committee from the Union that they would not be able to take action in regard to the installation of fire plugs in Midway and South Enola. Property owners were under the impression that the fire plugs can be secured through the presentation of a petition signed by a half of the property owners of the district.
Annexation of the West Shore to Harrisburg, which about two weeks ago was being agitated from one end of the West Shore to the other, is now at a standstill. The committee from the Union, under whose auspices the meetings were being held did not report and nothing was said on the subject.
